Beginning of the end of the Labour Party?

Rachael Maskell and Dawn Butler have resigned from Labour’s Shadow Cabinet.

No. Me neither.

They quit over Jeremy's 3-line whatsit vote to trigger the formal process of leaving the EU.

Yep - me neither.

Sonic67

Corbyn probably said the same.

Cliff

And Diane Abbott had a headache and couldn't drag herself along to the house to vote.
Probably a first.

BBC Radio 4 - Today, Did Diane Abbott have 'Brexit flu'?

"Taken ill" or "a bit peckish" call it what you will.

Eww... this is a family friendly forum

Think I read somewhere that the Labour whips actually voted against the bill too!!

To be fair, I don't envy the position she was in. Vote with her constituency, largely remain or defy the whip. Not bothering probably a good choice in the long run.

Sonic67

Yep two of them.
